Recognize and compare shapes, notice sides and corners, and practice spatial relationships with illustrated objects.

Learning levels are starting points, not assessments. These activities supplement learning with a grown-up; they do not promise school readiness or replace a curriculum. Take breaks and choose a level that feels comfortable.
